I take the blame for it. I did a bad job on him.
He's back. He's healthy. He's in better condition. He's hungry and wants the ball. He wants his team to be better.
He has been playing the game at a high level lately, playing like an All-Star.
Having five days off helped me come out with a lot of energy. It is tough to be able to play games like this, down to the end. This is what you need come playoff time.
Watching him play and watching him talk about the seasons that they had is motivating. I grew up watching it, so to hear the inside scoop of the championships they won and watching him play is a motivation.
We're going to miss Eddie a lot, the defense he brought and the way he chased guys around the court. I want to see who's going to do that.
We know we're a couple of shots and defensive plays away from being a great team.
We know we can win. That's what we're all here for. . . . This is my third year here and it's like it's my third different team, but we can win.
We're still looking. We hope it will come. If it doesn't come soon, we'll have an early vacation.
We've got it now, you know? We've got what we need to do to win.
We've got enough firepower to win without him. If one person goes down, the other guys have to step up.
We have to go up there and try to get the first one.
We were more aggressive in the second half. I just did not want us to lose. I do what I can to help my team win. I was just doing what I can to help my team win.
We played into their hands by helping so much and letting shooters like Jones and Bell and guys like that hit some awfully big shots.
